You control the time. You control the costs. You control the outcomes. Complete privacy and confidentiality. The process is flexible to your needs. Relationships typically improve since mediation encourages participants to collaborate on a solution that satisfies both sides.⁠

Two-party mediation is a non-adversarial dispute resolution process, done in pairs or multi-party settings, in which a neutral third party (the mediator), who has no decision-making authority, facilitates a conversation to assist the disputants in voluntarily reaching a resolution that is acceptable to all sides.

Mediation has recently become a popular way to settle cases of separation and divorce. Unlike a lawyer, who is trained to take the side of one client and give advice, a mediator is asked to be “in the middle” of those in dispute. Mediators facilitate conversations that ensure you negotiate respectfully with one another. You reconcile your differences by constructing an agreement acceptable to both parties, without the mediator taking sides or imposing any binding decisions.

There are some real advantages to this way of resolving disputes:
➡️It is less stressful than a court trial
➡️It’s less expensive and is over more quickly
➡️A judge doesn’t make the final decision. Parties in dispute work it out together
➡️The process is confidential, whereas court trials are on the public record
➡️Because mediation requires respectful communication and mutual decision-making, it tends to improve communication between divorcing parents. This has future benefits when you are co-parenting

About

Reflective Mediation helps separating couples, individuals, and families resolve conflict and improve communication.

Facilitated conversations settle disputes in the present and prevent them from escalating further in the future by ensuring participants actually hear what one another are saying and understand one another’s interests. Mindful communication helps people understand one another’s needs, and often to more deeply appreciate their own. Understanding builds bridges where reaching mutually beneficial solutions become easier. This process is not about having someone telling you what to do, it’s about listening and becoming empowered to reach an agreement, settling disputes in a way that satisfies the interests of all parties involved. “My mission is to help individuals resolve crisis in their lives, and thereby to enrich their relationships.” – MIKE MACCONNELL
